About the Designer

Dividing her time between Paris and Los Angeles, stylist Marie-Eve Carre's quest to find unique jewelry for Parisian runways inspired her to design her own. In 2005, she founded Avant Garde Paris, a cutting-edge costume jewelry line handmade in L.A. with the highest regard for quality. Named the city's top jewelry designer by the L.A. Times, Carre's non-conformist, visionary approach to design is evident in each piece of Avant Garde Paris jewelry, yielding perennial, stand-alone works of art.
